When you are done in the meeting room, give your group an excursion that defies ordinary. Create the perfect team building experience to bring your team and organization to the next level of performance, both in and out of the conference room. Groups can incorporate the Aspen Idea into their meetings and the clean mountain air will encourage attendees to get outside and enjoy the natural beauty surrounding them. Adventures range from mild to wild, under the sun or stars, on the roads, trails and rivers of this pristine Rocky Mountain playground.
